It's
like radio wireless.. but the devices and options are changing..



Yep, could be. Wi-fi as the new radio. Digital, lots of choices,
great sound, and better technology than trying to tack digital onto
existing AM/FM.

Analog TV broadcasting is going the way of the dinosaur - can analog
radio broadcasting be far behind?


As soon as they make a $5 digital radio that'll run for a week on a
single 9 Volt battery.
